Matheran - rain of colours

Mumbai has mechanical, steel, metal, regular, boring life.....waits for rain every year.
This year it came but stay half hearted.

Still it had its magic hand touching Mumbai and surrounding to change them. to change them like how a caterpillar changes to a butterfly.

How a canvas changes to a painting.

I wanted to show those colours of rain to our daughter. Our family friend Sumana/Sumitro and Anurag (their son) got us a chance. they came seeing us and came along with two room booked for a Saturday night in MTDC-Matheran.

Here are some photos depicting Matheran the way I want to remember. Matheran of rain, droplets, pure colours, fresh air, Red earth and deep Green leaves. Mountain with fabulous Parrot Green grasses.

I took first shot hear looking towards the train face to face, realized that there is a rickshaw going side by side. Instantaneously shoot it.

Kaas plateau - impossibly natural

You are lucky if you stay near Satara. If not, pack your camera, reach Kasara or Pune to reach this place. You will be welcome by a patient nature who did impossibly natural beauties there. We had hard time trying close our jaws and keeping our eyes open. Kaas is a flower land, a plateu full of varieties of flowers. They grow naturally, they live for a short time, like any other beauties. And the place keep on bringing new varieties within days. It all happens in June to October beginning, depending on temperature, humidity of the time. Lets stop talking or reading, start seeing the faint tr that me could through a mere light sealed box and lenses.
